  1. Greetings! I live in the Buffalo/Niagara Falls area. If you plan on hitting some caches in the area, there are plenty. In the falls there is the Niagara River series with around 15 to grab all ranging form super easy to quite challenging. As for lodging, truthfully head over the border to Niagara Falls Ontario. The view of the falls is second to none, and you get the exchange rate as well, win/win.

     

    On to the weather. I have lived here all my life and seen it all (I think). Don't expect much if any snow in december. We didn't get snow last winter till Jan of this year. Heck my boy and me were out caching at the end of december 2003 with light jackets on. I think the temps were around 68 or so. The storm Brian was talking about was a wicked one. I live 45 min's north of Buffalo and when they got socked we had barely a few inches, go figure. Here is a link for the city I live in. It hasn't been updated in a while, but has links that should help.

    Hope this helps and enjoy your trip.

  5. If I could make a comment on the extra batteries, buy the energizer e2 batteries. I recently went on a night time black light only cache hunt with my Magellan Sport Trak Map. 3 hours with the units back light running and it didn't even make a dent in the battery usage!! While the other 2 cachers I was with had to replace batteries almost twice due to the drain. They are a bit more expensive but well worth it in the long run. Also in a cache pack, don't forget the hand sanitizer gel.

    They ar also overrun by adults pretending to be kids talking about things they shouldn't just ti get their jolly's. If you have multiple puters in the house, there is plenty of spy softwares to make dam sure you're kids aren't doing what they shouldn't be. My son was busted once cause he didn't think I knew how to check for things like that. Now he knows!!!

    Sorry to see you go. I admire you for taking the time, effort and mullah on getting that plaque done.

     

    I wouldn't and won't let a mere disagreement stand in my way of my fun, thoughts and my opinions. There are some rules that I disagree about here, especially on the virtual thing. But, they are their rules. I paid my dues to support them and don't regret doing so.

     

    Good luck

    Good point, without the cacher's, no GC.com. Don't get me wrong, I am a visitor here using services provided by GC so I understand the position but maybe be a little more diplomatic than "if you don't like it get out".

    I agree, if it was intended to be a joke throw a j/k in there. I am new to the GC scene and have learned alot from the seasoned vets of the sport. It's sad to see such a dedicated cacher leave on unhappy terms. It's even sadder when you see some of the attitudes and ego's that dominate the forums. This is suppose to be fun remember. A place to communicate with others in an adult manner. Anyhoo, sorry to see you go Team360, good luck and happy caching!!

  17. Since everyone is hot and bothered with the difference between opinion vs attack, a couple of definitions of the two;

     

    Opinion: A belief or conclusion held with confidence but not substantiated by positive knowledge or proof

     

    Attack: To set upon with violent force.

    To criticize strongly or in a hostile manner.

     

    If the receiver choses to take offense to an opinion there isn't much to be done.

  18. I always quote "Opinions are like a@@holes, we all have one". Like stated before, ppl need to not take anothers opinion so personally. Name calling and the personal attacks are uncalled for and childish. If this is to be an adult forum, act accordingly. With that said "I know you are but what am I" icon_razz.gif
